Is there a "State Server"

I've seen references to using an out of process state server in cases where
you need to maintain session state in a web server farm. I think SQL Server
will be too slow to manage the state that I want to manage, and I can't find
any actual product called a "State Server" on the MS site. Is there such a
thing, or is this something I need to build myself?

Thanks,

hi,
this ais a mode where we store sessions on a dedicated server .
on this machine we just have to start the ASPNETSERVICE
in the services section...(control panel)
now say
we hv two servers 1 and 2

so can store session on 1.
so 2 also point 1
i.e IP address shud be same...
stateconnection string ....

any help plz mail

coz i had set up the server farm in my company ....
 
Thanks, I'm more clear on how this works now. How much of a performance
difference have you found between using the state service on another machine
vs. using the standard inprocess session state? (Obviously network speed
etc. will be a factor here, but did you find it to be a problem)?

Thanks,
Chris
